    3D Restoring The Yak

    Ah...got ya. I misunderstood you. I wouldn't worry too much about putting graphics over an open bay area. Typically you really don't have to put too much pressure on the vinyl as the adhesive (that I have seen) is some incredibly sticky stuff. So if you are applying them over an open bay...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    It's working pretty well Randy. Everything seems to be fitting very nicely. Still a little confused on the correct placement of the bottom rudder sections, but I'm sure I'll figure it out. If you happen to know someone with the same scheme as I am doing, I could use a side fuselage pic or two...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Hmmm....lemme guess....lol. There was a time or three way back in the past I too had umm, the need for a "fix". No real task. I chose a graphic large enough and concieling enough that what I was covering would be very disgreetly hidden. Depending on the uh...open bay, sometimes I would select a...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Well, I really didn't plan to have time for the big Yak today. As it turned out...had breakfast with my little girl this morning, lunch with an awesome woman and did some covering this afternoon. Oh life is great. :banana-dance: I did get a little accomplished on the right side of the fuse. More...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Hey...the accent colors are precut Ultracote to match the cowl. Later after the covering is all done I plan to add vinyl graphics to the fuse and wings. Not too many though. I don't care too much for a cluttered up look. The covering is really not too difficult to lay over existing covering. A...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Ok.., so I was able to get a little more covering done today. I started on the left side of the fuse with the accent stripes. I figured the best way to get things lined up and correct was to put the new cowl on and use it for a guide. Hey, that just might work...is what I was thinking. Once...

    You're a dog. A smart one though. Lol. Sounds like the mrs. is just awesome. Good for you. Sorry to hear about her foot. Trust and believe I feel her pain. I shattered my left foot 2 years ago and now carry more titanium than all my rc airplanes combined. Wishing her a much better recovery than...

    3D Restoring The Yak

    Trying..but it's that damn four letter word that keeps me from making great strides. You know, the one that starts with a "W" and ends with a "K"? Ugh.... I will be getting home later in the day on Friday this week. I plan to wind down the week with getting my iron warm and getting my cowl on...

    Sport Restoring The Laser

    Kelly, did you know David has been cheating on his Lazer? Yup...I caught him playing with a new kit. He said he promised he would not touch it....(yeah right)....until the Lazer was done. Yeah, I believe that one. Like I believe piggies fly over the ocean front property in Arizona. :laughing:
